Here are some trials of sketching solar proms using coloured pencil and black paper. I think I still have to work out how to get the arc of the sun in proportion to the proms. The first sketch is at 66x and show a filament - some ideas about how to do this would be appreciated - and the arc looks at lower mag than the second, done at 46x.

I tried doing the filament by using graphite over the orange pencil, but his just looked shiny. I then went over it with black which helped. As I said, suggestions would be received with gratitude.

Both done through ED80 with 50mm Lunt Ha filter at 0.7 Angstrom
